How I setup Exit Node through my Home Network

I managed to do this through Tailscale.

Follow my short and simple guide to setup remote access to home network and Proxmox server here:

After you are done with setting up tailscale on your home and Proxmox server, go into your device console which is going to be used as your exit node and type this in:

First setup Tailscale, follow my short and simple guide here:

How I Access My Home Server from Anywhere in The World

After you are done with that, go into your Tailscale container’s console and type in:

sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

echo "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf

Verify it by:

sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward

It should show:

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

Start Tailscale again by:

sudo tailscale up --advertise-routes={your subnet} --ssh

ex: sudo tailscale up --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24 --ssh

After that part is completed go into Tailscale admin panel, find your container in there and enable subnet routes.

I started by creating an Ubuntu container inside my Proxmox Environment. I usually make the container ID the same as my static IP address I have determined for this container, so as to easily navigate. Don’t start your container yet.

After the container is setup, I went to the host kernel into its:

vi /etc/pve/lxc/{container ID}.conf

In there using the vi editor, I added a couple of lines:

lxc.cgroup2.devices.allow: c 10:200 rwm
lxc.mount.entry: /dev/net/tun dev/net/tun none bind,create=file

Exit from the vi editor and now start your container.
